Menu →ORIGINAL LOCAL RECIPES
Highly original cuisine
Jela koja pripremaju temelje se na podlozi istraživanja originalnih lokalnih recepata uz tehnički savršenu i maštovitu uporabu najboljih namjernica, posebno ovdašnjih (vidovečko zelje, bučino ulje, svježe povrće, zagorski puran…) te ih stavljaju u poziciju kreatora i predvodnika nove varaždinske kuhinje, temeljene na načelima vrhunske gastronomije, tradiciji lokalnih jela i namirnica oplemenjenih primjenom najnovijih svjetskih trendova i tehnika u pripravi hrane. Također, smatraju da kuhinja mora biti visoko autorska kako bi se i svakodnevna domaća jela pretvorila u gastronomske spektakle. Svoj prvi samostalni restoran, iz navedenih razloga, doživljavaju kao varaždinsku utvrdu vrhunske hrane. Dobar vam tek!
